Residenset in Kristianstad winner of Facade of the Year 2020
Residenset in Kristianstad is the winner of the Facade of the Year in the Renovation / Restoration category! The prize was awarded at Fasadforum on November 12. Facade of the Year is the construction industry's major prize for Sweden's best house facade. The competition aims to draw attention to construction that contributes to beautiful, interesting, exciting and sustainable houses.
Mattias Hedberg Ek at FOJAB has been appointed house architect for the Kristianstad Residence. On behalf of the National Property Board, the Residence has in recent years been renovated and adapted for new functions and tenants. An extensive facade renovation has been carried out in collaboration with Blasberg Andréasson Arkitekter in Lund, an architectural office specializing in renovations and new buildings in culturally valuable environments, and facade contractor Folkes bygg & byggnadsvård. Drachmann arkitekter has also participated.
Motivation of the jury:
Cultural history well worth preserving. This characterizes all the final nominated entries for the renovation award of the Facade of the Year. Sweden has a fantastic building history. The country is full of urban environments and individual buildings that give us all a sense of belonging both in the present and the past. Preserving and in many cases restoring buildings so that they can continue to enrich our country is invaluable. This year's winners show how crucial it is to have responsible, committed and competent project teams to achieve a top-class end result. Their attention to detail, level of execution and sensitivity to a building's origins have laid the foundation for their success.

FOJAB and Peab win prestigious land allocation competition in Jönköping.
Together with Peab, FOJAB has developed the winning proposal for the land allocation competition for a new neighborhood in Jönköping. The proposal is a residential neighborhood with a strong focus on social sustainability, public activities and invites for life-long living.
In April 2020, Jönköping municipality invited a land allocation competition to develop the Öljetten block in the new Skeppsbron district in Jönköping. The land allocation had a clear objective; a strong and clear idea of socially sustainable urban development and how to let it characterize the block.
The winning proposal, The Secret Garden, will be a residential neighborhood with a strong focus on social sustainability. The ambition of the project has been to create a neighborhood that invites living for a lifetime. The proposal includes different types of housing that are adaptable to the life situation. Special focus has been placed on meeting young people's needs for their own accommodation, security and social meetings. Among other things, the block will have a higher proportion of small apartments than a conventional housing project, with around 45% of the homes being one room. This enables young people to have their own accommodation at a reasonable cost.
- "We are very happy to be involved in creating the Öljetten block together with FOJAB. It is gratifying that Jönköping municipality has such a high level of ambition in terms of social sustainability. Our ambition is to create a safe, socially sustainable and exciting neighborhood that invites residents of all ages. It will be a neighborhood to meet and socialize in. We have a challenge in our industry to find apartment solutions that are more flexible with regard to the different stages of life than the traditional 1s, 2s and 3s. We hope to demonstrate this here," says Annike Thorén, District Manager at Peab.
The Öljetten block is a classic city block based on simple volumes in a robust frame. The block is given different characters, which provides the conditions for ground floors that spill out onto the street and various social functions that are added to urban life. Health, movement and common places for activity have been important aspects of the design proposal. The neighborhood will have many public activities and social functions such as a guest apartment, laundry lounge, coworking and bicycle workshop. In addition, there is "The Secret Garden", the pocket park, which is a lush, green oasis to which Jönköping residents are invited. The private courtyard life is lifted up to the roof where opportunities are provided for cultivation, physical activity and everyday movement.
Motivation of the jury:
"The Secret Garden is a very elaborate and fine proposal that has many basic qualities in structure, design and housing and that fits in well with the idea of what Skeppsbron should be in the future. The strength of the winning proposal in the issue of social sustainability is primarily about the focus on young people's housing and the desire to involve young people in the design of the neighborhood's common environments. There is also an exciting focus on health and movement in the proposal, also a key issue in a time of increased sedentary behavior among young people."

Studenternas football stadium in Uppsala is completed
Studenternas in Uppsala is a mythical place, historically the home of Sirius and host of the Swedish Championship final in bandy. The area is beautifully situated along the Fyrisån river and the site is established in the city. Here, FOJAB has designed the football stadium, new parts of the bandy arena, two new squares - together it has become a completely new meeting place in central Uppsala.
Studenternas is part of the work to develop the southern riverside area. The aim is to create a more attractive, well-attended and safer arena area while giving the arena access to more services. The central location of the Studenternas makes it important to integrate the area into the city and make it a year-round meeting place.
The idea has been to embrace the open values of the surrounding park and thus become a natural part of Uppsala. The goal is an active arena area that is never closed. An arena area with strong appeal that can be used in everyday life and is only partially closed on match days. In addition to the arena, which can accommodate up to 10,500 spectators at all-Swedish matches, there is also a café/restaurant, gym, shops, health care, conference facilities and offices. The artificial grass pitch makes it possible to use the arena more frequently, this is utilized and today the arena is used as a home arena for three elite teams (Sirius, IK Uppsala and Dalkurd) both for matches and training.
The football stadium is connected to an office building that makes the facility flexible. The main stand is integrated into the higher office volume located along Sjukhusvägen on the west side of the stadium. This connection provides a natural division between the hot and cold public areas of football. Football's VIP rooms are located in the warm areas of the main stand, with their own terrace in the upper stand and a view of the pitch. Premises located on the ground floor towards the entrance square on Sjukhusvägen and the arena square towards the park, are outward-looking to create attractive environments around the arena.
The stadium space is dense and enveloping to achieve proximity to the pitch for a better football experience from the stands. The foyers on the north and west sides are positioned so that the audience never loses contact with the football in the inner court. They have been placed at the level of the entrance square on Sjukhusvägen so that the foyer area can also function as a meeting place in everyday life.
On the eastern side towards the river, the building heights are kept lower for a more human scale towards the park. Arenatorget is an open gathering place that works for large crowds at matches and for various everyday activities. Arenatorget forms the link to Stadsträdgården and becomes part of the park and the places along the river. The arena is more urban in its choice of materials towards Sjukhusvägen where the facades, ground treatment and main stands are built in processed concrete with glass facades. The lower stands with roofs that are more in a park environment are built in wood, which fits better in this calmer environment. Kiosks, toilets and restaurant facades have been given a high-pressure laminate board in wood color as a facade material, these volumes become visible and keep the identity of the facility together.
It has been important to preserve and enhance the quality of the park adjacent to the new football stadium. By allowing the park and its character to spill over into the slightly more urban environment at the football stadium, the park path is widened and provides a more generous green environment around the stadium. The spaces between the buildings are also enhanced by designing them for different activities so that they can be included in the park path in a natural way.

New sustainability initiative with the FOJABgreen methodology
At FOJAB, we have the greatest impact when we, as architects, can contribute our expertise and influence all the projects we undertake in a more sustainable direction. We want to take advantage of all the knowledge of our employees. This is why we have a structured sustainability program in the form of FOJABgreen. We took the opportunity to ask a few questions to architect Anders Eriksson Modin, who is responsible for FOJABgreen.
What is FOJABgreen?
FOJABgreen is our method for working in a structured way with all different aspects of sustainability. The method is a catalyst where we, preferably in close cooperation with our clients, examine how we can achieve the best possible results based on all aspects of sustainability. As architects, we have a huge opportunity to influence what is built and how sustainable it is.
How does the method work?
To simply describe FOJABgreen, I would say that it is a workshop, preferably together with our customers, where we put together the expertise that is most suitable for lifting the current project. It can be anything from an urban development task, a preschool or a small house. As a method, FOJABgreen is based on dialog about conditions and opportunities. The goal is to leave the meeting inspired and excited by all the different inputs and want to put this into practice.
What is the level of customer interest in sustainability and FOJABgreen?
We see that there is a huge interest in improving each project based on sustainability. At the same time, we feel that it is difficult to navigate between certification systems and difficult to make wise choices regarding design, energy, climate impact, ecosystem services and various social factors. We have accumulated a lot of experience over a long time and want nothing more than to share our best tips. FOJABgreen allows us to do this in a structured way.

Argus, Falkenberg's new knowledge and culture center is completed
In a strategic location between Stortorget and the new city park, FOJAB has designed Argus, Falkenberg's new knowledge and cultural center. Argus will be a symbolic building and a new public meeting place in the city that creates conditions for creativity and curiosity. Great emphasis has been placed on creating a sustainable and architecturally strong character that is welcoming and accessible.
In 2015, FOJAB won the announced competition for a new knowledge and cultural center and has since worked on the program, system and construction document in close cooperation with the municipality's activities. Argus will be co-utilized by upper secondary school, library, cultural school and youth activities and will be a vibrant meeting place.
- Argus has a strong character and a clear profile that utilizes the qualities of the existing buildings and adds a new and inspiring dimension to the city. It is a symbolic building that contributes to the city's diversity and social sustainability," says Kjell Adamsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
Argus' welcoming main entrance facing Stortorget contains the children's library's shop window, a café with outdoor seating and a stage. Inside the entrance doors is a two-level foyer with a reception and information center, exhibition areas, an auditorium and small ensemble rooms that can be used for lectures and conferences. Directly inside the foyer, the library extends over two floors around a large open courtyard. The library also has a large glass section that becomes a painting of the changing seasons. Together with Folkets Hus and Stadsteatern, Argus forms a strong cultural cluster that connects the existing city center with the city to the north.
- Argus is the secondary school's common meeting place and cohesive hub on the campus with a number of existing school buildings. We have created a vibrant building with space for creativity, curiosity and discovery. The buildings are designed in such a way that there are good conditions for collaboration. Building community properties is an extensive investment, but through collaboration it becomes profitable," says Charlotte Kristensson, responsible architect for knowledge environments at FOJAB.
- We at the municipality are proud of Argus, which is a building that stands out. The services are very satisfied and happy in the new beautiful premises. We receive many comments from visitors who express that they really like their new library," says Andy Femling, Acting Head of Construction and Projects at the Culture, Leisure and Technology Administration. Head of Construction and Projects at the Culture, Leisure and Technology Administration in Falkenberg Municipality.
FOJAB has designed both the building and the outdoor environment around the new knowledge and culture center. The outdoor environment is inspired by the varied and dramatic landscape around Falkenberg and creates a strong character and a new and inviting element in the cityscape, while reinforcing the building.

Foajén office building nominated for the City of Malmö Green Lance Award
Every year, the City of Malmö awards the Green Lance prize for sustainable construction. The foyer is one of three nominated projects and FOJAB is behind both design and planning.
The foyer is located in Södra Nyhamnen, an area undergoing exciting development. On behalf of Jernhusen, FOJAB has designed the office building with a roof park that will be a workplace for 700 people. Environment and sustainability, flexible office spaces and people's well-being in working life have been the focus of the design.
The sustainability targets for the project have been high and the Foyer is an eco-smart building that focuses on the well-being of both people and the environment. On the roof, for example, there is a walkway lined with 26 types of plants and 200 square meters of solar cells. In addition to environmental certification according to BREEAM, the building will also be certified according to The WELL Building Standard® (WELL) system, a new international building standard focusing on people's well-being in working life with seven different focus areas: air, water, diet, light, exercise, well-being and mind.
- We have created a new office and meeting place that provides fantastic conditions for living sustainably and feeling good throughout the working day. Now we are delighted with the attention and nomination for the Green Lance," says Charlotte Kristensson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
Motivation of the jury:
"The foyer is designed for all the senses and invites both work and rest - from the entrance, up through the stairwell to the roof terrace. This flexible office building has an exemplary holistic approach to design, environment and health. Smart technology for energy, ventilation and acoustics is complemented by art and sound installations, vegetation and greenery. The roof terrace, with views of the harbor area and the city, meadows and winding wooden walkways, is a secret oasis with space for socializing and recovery. In the Foyer, concern for people and their well-being in the workplace is the real focus."
About the City of Malmö Green Lance Award

Lund's schoolyards will be more equal and inclusive this fall
Circus stools, ping-pong and a 'rogue outdoor gym' - these are some of the new activities that students in Lund can try when they return from their summer vacation. The new activities are part of the Equalizer research project, a collaboration between FOJAB, Nyréns, Lund Municipality, Lund University and Malmö University. The aim is to encourage more physical activity and enjoyment of movement on school playgrounds.
Research shows that the proportion of young people who are physically active is decreasing. Girls in upper secondary school are the least active, but gender differences can be seen even further down the age scale, according to sports researcher and cultural geographer Karin Book from Malmö University, who is part of Equalizer. Also involved in the project is ethnologist and site researcher Elisabeth Högdahl from Lund University, who highlights how different norms create invisible rules that determine who has the right to the site and how it should be used.
- Against this background, we want to explore with children and young people how we can reverse this negative movement trend by questioning norms. It's about creating greater participation, better public health and equal access to spaces in the city," says Åsa Samuelsson, architect at FOJAB and one of the initiators of Equalizer.
Two years ago, the first stage of the Vinnova-funded Equalizer project was completed. The focus then was on making Malmö's activity areas more equal and inclusive. Stage two is currently underway in Lund, where the focus is instead on schoolyards. Together with students and teachers from Östratornskolan and Fäladsgården in Lund, we have developed new types of activities that challenge norms about how schoolyards should be used and by whom. This also creates greater participation and equality.
- It is well known among educators that learning is positively affected by children moving around. This project also helps to stimulate pupils with different physical conditions to play and move," says Mia Honeth (L), Chair of the Children and Schools Committee in Lund Municipality.
Through methods such as norm disruption and workshops, Equalizer has worked with students to identify barriers, find creative solutions in the form of activities and discuss topics such as norms, community and exclusion,
- We have developed a three-step Equalizer model where we identify barriers, find creative solutions and test prototypes. The goal is to change behaviours and normalize a new approach through additions and supporting measures," says Emma Pihl, planning architect at FOJAB and project manager for Equalizer.
Some of the activities are now being inaugurated and tested in full scale with prototypes in school playgrounds. These could be tools that twist a regular activity to attract new users, activities that challenge and reward new ways of moving, or on-the-go activities when breaks feel short. The prototypes will be moved to Brunnshög in northern Lund later this fall and become part of an activity area open to all Lund residents.
- Lund Municipality works continuously on how to work with more inclusive and gender-equal spaces. We want to create inspired and safe places that invite movement and meetings between people. Through this project, we can learn how to make both schoolyards and other activity areas as good as possible, not least when a new district is being built," says Eva Dalman, project manager at Brunnshög in Lund.
About Equalizer
Equalizer is a Vinnova-funded research project within the call for norm-critical innovation. It is a collaborative project between the architectural firms FOJAB and Nyréns, Lund Municipality, Lund University and Malmö University where theory has been combined with method development and practical application on a full scale. Equalizer step 1 was carried out in collaboration with the City of Malmö. The goal of the project is to disrupt place-based norms to create equal and inclusive environments and surfaces that support physical activity. We have developed an Equalizer model with three steps where we identify obstacles, find creative solutions and test prototypes. The goal is to change behaviours and to normalize a new approach to how and by whom places can be used, through complementary and supportive measures. Participation and co-creation are central to Equalizer. The aim of the project is to create simple and easy-to-use tools to disrupt place-based norms and, based on this, to create physical changes to make it easier for more groups and individuals to take place and become active in public space. These tools can then be used in other places by those who want to help create inclusion when places are built and changed. The method is not only interesting from a practical perspective but has also attracted interest in the research community.

FOJAB & IVL develop tools for a climate-smart construction industry
Together with IVL Swedish Environmental Institute, FOJAB has been awarded funding from the Swedish Energy Agency for the project LCA-driven design of buildings. The aim of the project is to develop a method for visualizing the building's climate footprint at an early stage of design. In this way, buildings can be designed with regard to their climate footprint from a life cycle perspective.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) at an early design stage has the potential to significantly reduce the climate impact of buildings by understanding the overall design from a climate perspective. By integrating digital design tools with calculation tools, a holistic optimization of the building's design is made possible at an early decision-making stage, where the major measures can be taken.
The project aims to develop an industry-wide method and process to be able to work actively with life cycle analysis in early stages, based on the link between digital design tools and the Construction Sector's Environmental Calculation Tool (BM). The method will support an informed process with good decision support for clients, architects, designers, developers and contractors.
- It feels great to have the opportunity to start this project together with IVL. Now we can understand how the design decisions affect the climate footprint from the first sketch. At FOJAB, we have already developed a strong analysis package that informs about the performance of what we draw in real time. We see this as a natural continuation and deepening of that work. With the help of smart digital tools, architects and designers can sharpen their senses and see more than the eye can capture. Now we can influence construction to become truly climate-smart," says Petra Jenning, head of FOJABcode.
In addition to FOJAB and IVL, Byggnadsfirman Otto Magnusson, MKB and Warm in the Winter are also involved in the project, which is funded by the E2B2 program.

FOJAB designs new residential building for Peab in southern Brunnshög, Lund.
In an attractive location next to Gryningsparken in southern Brunnshög, FOJAB has designed the Gryningen 3 housing block for Peab. The block has a varied architecture and houses 80 Nordic Ecolabeled condominiums in different sizes with a focus on sustainability and community. Gryningen 3 will also be a test project to investigate challenges and opportunities with building robotics within the framework of the Vinnova-funded project ACon 4.0.
Gryningen 3 consists of about 80 apartments divided into four small-scale residential buildings with varied expressions. The idea is to create a "family" where a variety of selected characters are tied together into a whole and frame a common courtyard. The different characters reflect the whole, from facade design to layout and size.
- Lund Municipality has a high level of ambition for the area and it is great to work on this project together with Peab. We have presented a strong proposal with a variation in design at the same time as the block gets a calm whole with high materiality and coherent color scale. The different sizes and character of the homes means that there are homes that suit many different target groups, we focus primarily on efficient apartments for families with children, and couples/single people who want to live close to MaxLab, ESS and Sony," says Ida Stavenow, responsible architect at FOJAB.
The block will have several different functions with a focus on sustainability and community. Plans include workshop space on the ground floor, common areas where edible plants can be grown, and attractive bicycle parking instead of car garages. One of the houses will have a roof terrace for residents to use, and others will be equipped with solar panels. The ambition is also for the tallest building to have a unique mural painting, developed in collaboration with a local artist, which will be an eye-catcher for all visitors to Gryningsparken.
Within this project, FOJABcode will explore the challenges and opportunities of robotizing the masonry process. They will highlight how construction robots can contribute to architectural added value, as well as increase gender equality and improve the working environment for construction workers. The project is carried out within the framework of the Vinnova project ACON 4.0 which deals with the development of construction robotics and is done in collaboration with LTH Robotlab, Peab, Cognibotics, Cementa and Achoice.

Wrangelska Park in Landskrona - accessible, safe and inviting
Wrangelska Park is a popular park and meeting place in central Landskrona, with a history dating back to the 19th century. In recent years, the park and the adjacent streets have been neglected and are now in need of renovation. FOJAB has been commissioned by the municipality to come up with a sketch proposal on how we can improve the park and activate life in and around the park. The municipality's vision is to make the park more accessible, safe and able to benefit more people. The streets adjacent to the park will also become more inviting.
The sketch proposal is based on the municipality's vision and the time when the park was established in the 19th century. Plants and materials have been chosen to tie in with the history. The aim is to provide an overview of the park as you move through it.
- We have chosen to create different spaces in the park and make the existing pond accessible by creating a footbridge over the pond and footpaths with seating. To create security and clear views, existing bushes have been removed. We have also created more places and activities for young people. There will be a pump track and a trampoline next to the park. The existing playground is being renovated and our goal is that it will also breathe 19th century in terms of material selection and design," says Caroline Hertzman, responsible landscape architect at FOJAB.
The existing rose garden will remain. We are creating a leafy meeting place, framing it, facilitating maintenance and creating clear pathways and entrances. There is also a bird sanctuary in the park that will be opened up and made accessible, with wooden steps floating above the ground to allow movement through the dense vegetation. This will be a playful element for children.

Mörrum's new school - an educational, inspiring and safe learning environment at the children's scale
In Mörrum, in Karlshamn municipality, FOJAB has designed a new primary school for 550 pupils in grades F-6. Great emphasis has been placed on creating an experiential and sustainable architecture for children. A building that connects the interior and exterior learning environment and creates an educational, safe and inspiring place at the children's scale.
Mörrum's new school is part of a larger project to renew and consolidate the schools in Karlshamn municipality. The new school houses dormitories, special rooms and other common facilities such as a library, workshops, school restaurant and sports hall. FOJAB has worked on the project from the very beginning, and has, among other things, produced a strategic premises study for all schools in Karlshamn. The focus has been on participation and a large number of workshops have been conducted with those responsible in the municipality as well as educators and students.
The design idea for Mörrums Nya Skola is based on a project vision, a local program and a site analysis. The school building is divided into six smaller two-storey volumes that blend in well with the surrounding residential area of Mörrum and adapt to the scale of the children. Inside the building, activities are organized in smaller home zones with 75 children in each, where each home zone is designed as a complete learning environment with a palette of different types and sizes of rooms. The rooms can be used in a flexible way for different types of teaching and all communication areas have been minimized, which is important from a sustainability perspective. The school also has a large sports hall that can be used by sports clubs in the evenings and at weekends.
- The goal has been to create an experiential school environment that inspires learning. An environment where the choice of materials, visibility, good light and sound conditions interact. The architecture is designed for children and creates opportunities for flexible use throughout the school day. "We have worked according to the motto 'When you open the door, you are there' to create a seamless relationship between outside and inside with many entrances for a sense of closeness and accessibility," says Charlotte Kristensson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
Students at Mörrum School are involved in the design of the outdoor environment. Right now, all 350 pupils are developing their thoughts and ideas under the theme 'My dream schoolyard'. The drawings and models will form the basis for the design of the schoolyard.
- It feels great that we can incorporate the children's dreams into the design. That has been our starting point from the beginning - to create a school environment from the children's perspective," concludes Charlotte.
In addition to its sustainable architecture, Mörrum's new school has solar cells on the roof and will be heated by waste/ district heating. The goal is a certification Miljöbyggnad silver, which is the second highest level of certification for environmental buildings in Sweden. Construction of the school will begin in the summer of 2020 and is expected to be ready for occupancy in the fall of 2022.

FOJAB designs rebuilding project for Akademiska Hus office in Lund, Sweden
FOJAB has been entrusted with the design of the Akademiska Hus administrative office "Handsken" in Lund. The office, located in a cultural-historical building from 1918, is in need of renovation and adaptation to the needs of the business. The assignment includes remodeling and furnishing mainly offices and meeting rooms.
The building, which is a former glove factory, underwent extensive renovation and new construction in the early 1990s, designed by FOJAB. Now the business needs new premises.
The renovation of the Akademiska Hus office aims to create better flows in the building, refurbish the building and adapt the floor plan to developed working methods in line with the Akademiska Hus workplace concept. The remodeled office will be an activity-based office and contain areas that support identified needs and create an environment with different types of workplaces.
- It feels great to have the opportunity to once again design the rebuilding of Akademiska Hus' administrative offices in Lund. A culturally valuable building with a lot of history and qualities that needs to be adapted to today's modern operations and needs. Akademiska Hus also has high climate goals and we want to contribute with our sustainability thinking, says Daniel Nord, CEO of FOJAB.
Akademiska Hus is one of Sweden's largest real estate companies that builds and manages knowledge environments for universities and colleges.

FOJAB and Trianon win land allocation for the Hanna block in Burlöv.
Together with Trianon, FOJAB has developed the winning entry for the land allocation competition for a new neighborhood in Burlöv. The proposal is a hybrid neighborhood that includes about 150 homes, offices, sports, training and mobility. The block will be an exciting new meeting place where sustainable urban life is at the center.
In December 2019, Burlöv municipality invited a land allocation competition to develop and build the Hanna block next to Burlöv Central Station. The block is an important piece of the puzzle in the development of the station area and nearby Kronetorpstaden, and is intended to become a landmark and vibrant meeting place for Burlöv.
The winning proposal, Stadsbruket, will be a hybrid neighborhood that combines the best features of small towns and big cities. The proposal includes about 150 new homes, both rental and cooperative apartments, but also offices, sports, training and mobility, which contributes to movement and urban life in the area. The neighborhood's varied functions, forms of tenure and urban spaces are clearly expressed in welcoming entrances and identity-strong volumes. This creates a neighborhood where services, experiences and community become important components.
- Burlöv municipality has a high level of ambition for the area and we are pleased to be involved in creating this sustainable neighborhood together with Trianon. We have presented a strong proposal with distinctive volumes that create attractive urban spaces and tell about the history of the district and the location of the block. The Hanna block gives Burlöv a clear identity in the region," says Joachim Lundquist, head of architecture and responsible architect at FOJAB.

Kv. Vélo - a sustainable neighborhood in a historic shipyard environment
Kv. Vélo has a prominent location in Dockan, Malmö. A place where the traces of the shipbuilding industry meet an emerging urban neighborhood. Here, FOJAB has designed a residential neighborhood with a strong focus on the urban context, sustainability, accessibility and increased bicycle use.
The project has a clear sustainability focus, reflected in a timeless architecture with durable materials and well-crafted details. The old shipyard area is characterized by materials such as brick, concrete, steel and glass, which are taken up in the new block. The facades in red brick and relief masonry tie in with the industrial architecture and provide a shifting play of shadows. Towards the park and courtyard, the facades are instead bricked with light-colored bricks that enhance the experience of light.
Another important part of the sustainability aspect has been low energy consumption and the possibility of more car-free living. The building has been certified according to the Nordic Ecolabel, which guarantees that the work is based on a green philosophy with a focus on ethics, quality and sustainability. Opportunities for sustainable travel have also been an important prerequisite. With generous and easily accessible bright bicycle rooms on the ground floor, it is easy to park as the spaces are accessible from both the courtyard and the street. The residents also have access to electric cars, box bikes powered by renewable electricity and a car pool.
The block contains 144 well-planned apartments of various sizes, oriented around four stairwells. All apartments have balconies or patios. The recessed terrace floors at the top create space for large patios in several directions, which also provides space for e.g. cultivation. The entrance level brings together common functions for the residents, such as continuous entrances and glazed bicycle rooms that create visual contact with the lush courtyard. The courtyard is framed by three terraced houses on two levels, with their own patios facing the courtyard and the park.
- "Our starting point for the design of the block is the industrial character, the urban context and the activation of the entrance level, which adds quality and life to the local environment. Sustainability aspects have been influential throughout the project," says Emma Carlbom, project manager at FOJAB.

Kvarteret Stadsporten, Karlskrona - World Trade Center
Opposite Karlskrona Central Station, the World Trade Center is under construction; an energy-efficient and flexible office block in the heart of an emerging city district.
The World Trade Center is an office building in the form of a classic city block - simple volumes around a leafy courtyard. The composition of the façade borrows from Karlskrona's historic street scenes, while a subordinate band of low windows creates bright and distinctive interior spaces. Above the plinth floor, which opens up to the city, the folded structure of the façade creates a play of shadows reminiscent of the battens and pilasters of the city center. The matte and warm tones of the corten steel are linked to both Falu Rödfärg and local industrial history.
- The corten steel facade material is rustic and robust and anchors the building to the site, a neighborhood that many associate with a history of boat building and shipbuilding. "The building will age with dignity," says Stefan Johansson, the responsible architect.
The new Pottholmen district is a link between Pantarholmen and Trossö, forming a narrow strip of land between Borgmästarefjärden and Kofferdiredden. Pottholmen is being transformed from a railway yard area with low accessibility to a new hub in Karlskrona, where the World Trade Center will be a portal building. Scheduled for completion in December 2020, the office building will welcome visitors and residents to a dynamic new neighborhood.

Sweden's largest youth center in Hässleholm is inaugurated
People in the center, open and closed units, overlapping functions and varying security classes have been in focus when FOJAB has designed a new youth home in Hässleholm. The building connects to the previous building's architecture and materiality in a new way.
On behalf of Specialfastigheter and Statens Institutionsstyrelse, FOJAB has designed a new youth center in Hässleholm where Stage 1 is now completed and inaugurated. The project has included new construction of four departments and staff and training facilities. The new home has room for 40 young people who need care according to LVU. The young people receive help with investigation, discussions and treatment in parallel with school education.
The building embodies a complexity of overlapping functions and varying levels of security with rooms for living, school and work.
- In close dialogue with both clients and users, we have developed a spatial organization with a varied identity to create the best conditions for the interaction of different and overlapping functions. Young people in a particularly vulnerable situation come here, and care for people has been central to the design. The architect has a social responsibility and we always work with people at the center, says Sune Nilsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
The new building is designed with light-colored brick and wood paneling - simple and sustainable natural materials that are durable and age beautifully and blend into the environment. The facade reflects the need for openness and enclosure, where the heavy brick wall is broken by the school's wooden volumes and where slats shield from view but allow light to enter. The courtyards with color and greenery create the necessary pause.
- "Our aim has been to interpret the architecture and materiality of the existing facility in a new way, while respecting the materials that make up the previous facility. This creates a clearer connection and adaptation to the site with the functional architecture of the new main building," says Sune Nilsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
The accommodation and administration departments form the outer wall surrounding the school, with two axes of knowledge breaking through the wall in some places. The wooden axes of knowledge are lighter and brighter, and more inviting and open for young people to approach. A figurative and literal way out.
The project's environmental objective has been Miljöbyggnad Gold.

Mats Molén of FOJAB is awarded the Lund Urban Design Prize 2019.
Mats Molén, an architect at FOJAB, has been awarded the Lund Municipality's urban planning prize for the design of the Grand Hotel in Lund's new verandas and Bantorget. The award was presented at Lund's Stadsbyggnadsdag on March 10.
Architect Mats Molén has designed the Grand Hotel's extension with two new glass verandas, an outdoor terrace and a back pocket adjacent to Bantorget. The new verandas in glass, copper sheet and granite base have been given their own character from the building and become a natural part of the adjacent square. Bantorget has also been rebuilt to be an inviting entrance to the city and contribute to a vibrant city center.
- I am very happy and proud of the award. It has been an honorable and extremely interesting assignment with a clear goal, where the interplay between the hotel's operations and the development of the square has been in focus. The project is the result of a fruitful collaboration with the hotel's management and staff and the municipality's administrative units, says architect Mats Molén, and continues:
- An important starting point in the design is that the verandas should be perceived as easily removable - a sign of respect for the main building, a kind of click on - click off effect.
The prize was also awarded to the Technical Administration of Lund Municipality and Grand Hotel's CEO Maria Paulsson Rickle.
Motivation of the jury:
"The Lund Urban Design Award 2019 is awarded to the Grand Hotel's verandas and the redevelopment of Bantorget!
One of Lund's iconic buildings has been given new verandas that reveal life and movement on Grand's ground floor. The architect has carefully and confidently added a modern addition to the hotel, with great respect for the building's cultural-historical values and with a clear goal of enriching Bantorget.
The transformation of Bantorget strengthens the encounter with the activities around the square. Clear movement patterns have been created and inviting spaces have been added. The new furniture provides good function and beauty values that link to the site's historical heritage and the fountain is a beautiful eye-catcher that connects the site with the rest of the city center.
A successful urban development project depends on responsive clients. The Grand Hotel has ambitiously contributed to a successful whole. The new verandas, the plaza service, seating on the ground floor and open glass sections mean that the interior of the hotel interacts with the public function of the plaza.
The jury would particularly like to highlight the importance of how the parties involved have joined forces with the aim of finding a joint design that adds great value to the city. Here you can enjoy beautiful architecture, bustling public life, rippling water and piano music.
In short - Architecture for all senses!"
About the Urban Design Prize
In 1990, the Urban Development Prize was awarded for the first time. The prize was established by LKF, as a gift to the 1000-year anniversary of the municipality of Lund. The purpose of the prize is "to reward architects who have made a meritorious contribution to the development of the urban landscape in the municipality of Lund. Particular consideration shall be given to architectural efforts that combine the development of the cityscape, good function for users and beauty values."

Helsingborg District Court completed
The high demands of the business have been in focus when FOJAB combines existing and new into a uniformly designed court. The extension meets the city's ambition to connect the southern district with the city center. The building's location creates a natural place next to the new city street where entrances enrich city life and increase security.
- "The project is a fine example of how a new addition can be integrated, where the requirements of the business, the city's ambitions and feasibility have been balanced with a well-designed whole as a result," says Kjell Adamsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
The project is the first of two phases to complete the block. The brick facades with careful details are in keeping with Helsingborg's brick tradition. The pattern masonry of the base floor adds an additional quality to the experience.
New hearing rooms and a developed solution of separated flows meet the needs of the business for increased capacity and function. Existing rooms have been updated to meet new logistical, technical and security requirements.
A new main entrance with security control leads into the public areas and on to an inner square linking the existing and new premises. The extension is based on the structure of the existing building with views of the Öresund. Together with new materials throughout, the experience of a unified court is ensured.
- "At FOJAB we have extensive experience of working with court buildings and the special requirements associated with highly complex projects," says Kjell Adamsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.

FOJAB nominated as Real Estate Partner of the Year
FOJAB is nominated in the category Real Estate Partner of the Year in the Real Estate Øresund Award competition. The jury's motivation particularly highlights our work with computational design, 'computer-driven design'.
The award recognizes companies that through knowledge, competence and courage contribute to their client's success and results, which for us at FOJAB is central to all our customer relationships.
- It feels incredibly fun that our work with computational design is recognized in this context and we see the nomination as a confirmation of our competence and high level of ambition, says Daniel Nord, CEO of FOJAB.
Motivation of the jury: "FOJAB is nominated for having built up a team called FOJABcode over the years, with solid knowledge in the borderland between mathematics, programming and architecture. This has provided sharpened tools and increased competence in digital modeling, simulation and analysis. Several of the proprietary tools visualize the performance of buildings and cities to clarify relationships and connections that were previously difficult to understand intuitively. The toolbox includes interactive analysis tools that, from early volume sketches of buildings, estimate their performance in terms of daylight, views, energy use and flows in real time. There are also programs to simulate the development of an entire city, as an interactive support for choosing which areas should be developed, built and densified - and at what rate. In addition, FOJAB is a competent and diligent partner for a large number of players in the real estate industry and a successful competition partner with many winning projects. "
Other nominees are Datscha and Form/Design Center. The winner will be announced at a gala at Quality Hotel View in Hyllie on February 6.

FOJAB wins competition for new block at Masthuggskajen in Gothenburg, Sweden
FOJAB wins the architectural competition as Riksbyggen and Stena Fastigheter announced a proposal for 150 homes at Masthuggskajen in Gothenburg. The focus of the proposal has been to achieve a playful and dignified neighborhood that creates attractive urban spaces and takes advantage of the unique location between the river and the city.
Masthuggskajen, the area between Järntorget, Långgatorna and Göta älv, is part of Älvstaden and one of Gothenburg's largest urban development projects. Masthuggskajen will be a place with contrasts and a strong connection to public life and culture around Järntorget, Långgatorna and Linnéstaden. A place that creates opportunities for people of different ages to meet, socialize and interact.
- We are extremely proud and happy to be involved in developing this expansive part of Gothenburg with six characterful buildings that contribute to vibrant and attractive urban spaces," says Joachim Lundquist, Head of Architecture and responsible architect at FOJAB.
The winning proposal, Masthuggsskäret, will be a playful and dignified neighborhood that stages the meeting between the high-rise buildings and the public terraces in Göta älv. The proposal includes more than 150 new homes, both rental apartments and cooperative apartments, as well as shops and restaurants, which will contribute to movement and urban life in the area. The design is based on six distinct buildings with a stepped form, which together form two families. The block's terracing and openings provide fantastic views of the river. The neighborhood also has several small squares with restaurants and cafés, both towards the water and the city.
The courtyard takes inspiration from the archipelago and becomes green and vibrant. An arcade encloses the courtyard, creating quiet and sheltered spaces where residents can meet, while passages and porticos allow visitors to move easily through the neighborhood.
The facades are designed with brick and elements of steel and wrought iron that tell the story of the neighborhood and its location. Terraces and passages have wooden details that add warmth to the design. The overall composition is austere, playful and varied, but perhaps most of all robust - a long-term sustainable architecture.
- Based on a strong idea, we have developed a project of high architectural quality. The block has a character and dignity that takes advantage of the unique location between the river and the city. The design tells a clear story and conveys the sensitive meeting between high-rise buildings, quay and piers," says Stefan Johansson, architect and creative director at FOJAB.

FOJAB introduces the Movement Factor as a new tool in urban planning
FOJAB and the Swedish Sports Confederation have together begun work on developing the Movement Factor - a tool for working with and integrating different types of physical activity in the urban environment and in urban planning. In collaboration with the Movium think tank and the Swedish Sports Confederation, FOJAB will organize a workshop to kick off the work.
Research and surveys show that physical activity among the population is declining among both adults and children. Areas for sports and movement in a broader sense are of great importance for more people to have the opportunity to be active, and are an important factor in improving public health. With the right location, content and design, these spaces and functions can also contribute to social life in cities. There is great potential in allowing sport and movement to play a more important role in the physical environment of cities.
- The knowledge that exists in the area of physical activity, sport and spatial planning focuses mainly on either physical activity in everyday life or sport's need for space and facilities. Little attention is paid to how the needs of sport are met in planning and how different types of physical activity can interact and reinforce each other. There is therefore a need for a tool that includes all aspects," says Emma Pihl, initiator and architect at FOJAB.
In collaboration with Movium and the Swedish Sports Confederation, FOJAB will arrange a workshop on February 5 in Malmö where representatives from various municipal administrations, government agencies, the sports movement, private actors and researchers will gather to work together on the issue.
- It is exciting to have started this work together with FOJAB. Areas for different types of movement and sports are an important issue in community planning and urban development, but the sports movement and the municipalities need to find better forms of cooperation and tools to work practically with the issue. With the help of the Movement Factor, we can include different types of areas for movement and sport early in the planning phase and all the way to implementation," says Jonnie Nordensky of the Swedish Sports Confederation.
- The movement factor can be used at different scales in planning and construction, from the general to the detailed. For other issues in urban planning, there are rules or guidelines to relate to, such as green space factor, parking standards, noise and light conditions, etc. By formulating and introducing a Movement Factor, we can better ensure that physical activity has a stronger and clearer role in the development of cities and communities, says Åsa Samuelsson, initiator and architect at FOJAB.

The Foajén office building in Malmö has now been completed.
The foyer is located in Södra Nyhamnen, an area undergoing exciting development. On behalf of Jernhusen, FOJAB has designed the office building with a roof park that will be a workplace for 700 people. Environment and sustainability, flexible office spaces and people's well-being in working life have been the focus of the design.
- We have had the fun and exciting task of designing the Foyer, and are proud to be involved in developing this expansive part of Malmö together with Jernhusen, says Charlotte Kristensson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
The foyer consists of eight floors with a total of 7,700 square meters of office space and 1,100 square meters for retail and services at street level. The office building is given a strong design in brick that clearly expresses the building's volume and facade rhythm. A warm and welcoming living room, an open meeting place for everyone, greets you at the entrance. Here we have worked a lot with the contrasts between raw materials and the soft lines and textiles of the interior. A generous staircase leads to the companies' office workplaces. The office spaces are flexible and can be tailored to the tenants' needs. There are opportunities for individual offices or activity-based office solutions with a variety of sizes and types of rooms. The different floors, as well as the wide staircases in between, contain open spaces that allow for spontaneous meetings.
- We wanted to create an office building with a strong identity and character with a focus on sustainability and soft values. For us, form is always central, so we have created a long-term sustainable architecture - a design that stands the test of time," continues Charlotte Kristensson.
Up on the roof, there is a common roof park with a beach meadow character in the form of an undulating landscape with wooden walkways, ornamental grass and herbs. Here you can both walk and sit down for a moment of rest and look out over Malmö. The top offices each have their own terrace with seating in the sun.
The foyer is an eco-smart building that focuses on the well-being of both people and the environment. On the roof, for example, there is a walkway lined with 26 types of plants and 200 square meters of solar cells on the roof that produce 30,000 kWh/year. This is enough to charge electric cars and provide lighting for the rooftop promenade. In addition to BREEAM environmental certification, the building will also be certified according to The WELL Building Standard® (WELL), a new international building standard focusing on human well-being in the workplace with seven different focus areas: air, water, nutrition, light, exercise, well-being and mind. The technical measures such as acoustics, daylight and ventilation are complemented by soft parameters such as art, contact with nature, activity-promoting design but also relaxing environments to further improve the work environment. One example is the stairwell, which has been adorned with Emma Rytoft's playful paintings to encourage more people to take the stairs.

FOJAB strengthens the board with Birgitta Seeman and adds Carl Kylberg as a partner.
FOJAB's vision is to create architecture for a better world with the aim of continuous development and improvement. Recently, the management was strengthened with a development manager and an HR manager and now a new board member and partner has been appointed.
At the last AGM, Birgitta Seeman, former CEO of Borätt and Seniorgården, was elected to the FOJAB Board. A number of criteria were identified prior to the election of a new member. An essential requirement was to have knowledge of the construction or consulting industry and experience of building companies, which fits well with Birgitta Seeman's profile.
- "I and the rest of the board are convinced that Birgitta will be a positive addition. She is a challenger and visionary who complements us," says Ulf Pettersson, Chairman of the Board of FOJAB.
Ulf Pettersson also emphasizes that it is of great importance for FOJAB that Birgitta has strong roots in the Stockholm market.
- 'I have spent most of my professional life working with architects. It is an exciting and creative profession and I hope that my experience from the construction industry can enrich it," says Birgitta Seeman, newly appointed board member.
At FOJAB's owners' meeting in early December, it was decided to bring in architect Carl Kylberg as a new partner in the company. He has been employed as office manager with responsibility for FOJAB in Malmö and Helsingborg since September 2018.
- During his time with us, Carl has taken great responsibility. He has a natural and confident leadership and is appreciated both internally and externally," says FOJAB's CEO Daniel Nord.
- The employees and management were inviting and made it easy for me to come in and feel at home in the company. Now I look forward to being part of the future development of southern Sweden's largest architectural office as a partner," says Carl Kylberg.
Daniel Nord concludes by expressing his pleasure at the reinforcements in FOJAB's management and board, and he looks forward to the new year with great confidence.
FOJAB is owned by 28 people who are all operationally involved in the business and the board is composed as follows:
Ulf Pettersson, Chair (external)
Anna-Karin Eklund, member (external)
Birgitta Seeman, member (external)

Ålgräset 3 in Borstahusen receives Landskrona city's urban development award.
Landskrona city's urban planning committee has appointed the single-family house Ålgräset 3 in Norra Borstahusen as the recipient of the urban planning award 2019. FOJAB is the architect for both the house and the associated neighborhood.
Every year, the urban planning committee in Landskrona city selects a building to receive the urban planning award of the year in order to encourage developers and property owners to invest in good architecture with a high level of aesthetic ambition. This year, the committee has given the award to Ålgräset 3 in Norra Borstahusen.
- We are proud of the award! The architecture is a modern interpretation of the traditional Scanian small houses. We have worked a lot with the existing environment to make the houses fit into the picturesque Borstahusen. It's great that this is recognized and appreciated," says Joachim Lundquist, responsible architect at FOJAB. The prize was also awarded to Derome Mark och Bostad as project developer.
Justification of the Urban Planning Committee:
"Norra Borstahusen and Strandbyn are part of Landskrona's new urban edge. Between the older buildings, nature and the sea there is an interesting encounter that places special demands on the design. The property Ålgräset 3 is an excellent example of how traditional volumes, materials and colors can be used to create a natural context with the site. The inspiration from the structure, layout and design of the old fishing community is clear, but in a modern way. The sheltered courtyard is surrounded by hedges and complementary buildings architecturally well connected to the main building. The care taken in the architecture and the high quality continues in the design of the garden, where the choice of plants and materials gives a well-balanced, unified and exciting impression. Meticulously thought-out solutions both externally and internally make the building an extremely good example of how the original intentions for the district were set."

FOJAB designs new hotel in Södertälje, Sweden
The agreement between Stadsrum Fastigheter and Winn Hotel Group for a new Clarion Hotel in Södertälje is now complete. FOJAB has designed the hotel that will be a vibrant meeting place at Marenplan with an outward-looking content such as hotel, restaurant, entertainment and culture.
The area of the hotel will be approximately 8,600 square meters and will include a lobby & lounge, bars, restaurants, outdoor seating on a terrace facing Marenviken, conference area, co-working, training facility and approximately 200 guest rooms. The hotel is strategically located at the end of the Storgatan shopping street, and is expected to become a natural link between the city, Marenplan and the waterfront.
- It is a very exciting project. Together with Stadsrum Fastigheter, we have developed a strong concept with high quality in both design and choice of materials. The businesses we work with promote a natural flow to a new meeting place in Södertälje. We are convinced that the building can be the missing piece of the puzzle for the center to grow down to the water, says Per Aage Nilsson, responsible architect at FOJAB.
Stadsrum Fastigheter's and Södertälje municipality's joint vision is to create a vibrant meeting place at Marenplan.
The site has two levels, a higher city level and a lower one towards the water and Marenplan. On the city level is an open floor with entrances to the hotel, bar, restaurant, culture, conference and café. On this level, the city can enjoy the view and a natural connection via stairs down to Marenplan where more restaurants are located with nice outdoor seating facing south towards the water. The cultural facilities will have their own design in the building, which will provide visual clarity in the city. The generous Konsthallarna in the cultural premises can become Södertälje's new living room, upstairs from the entrance at city level, with a fine view of the water and the city. The roof of this middle level will have a large terrace with opportunities for outdoor art exhibitions.
About the new hotel in Södertälje
Hotel rooms: about 200
Facilities: Restaurant, bar, outdoor seating, meeting areas, gym and art gallery.
Opening date: fall 2023
Hotel chain: Clarion Hotel®

FOJAB designed Mässhaken - the residents have now moved in.
Mässhaken is a small-scale housing with a focus on greenery and good quality of life, consisting of a white plastered stone house with twelve condominiums, including four ground floor apartments and eight terraced houses on 2.5 levels. The new homes are now completed and on Friday the keys were handed over to the condominium owners.
The area is located about three kilometers north of Helsingborg city center with proximity to Mariastaden, Pålsjö forest and Pålsjö cemetery. Embedded in greenery but still close to the city and salty baths.
- We wanted to create small-scale housing with a good quality of life. We have placed great focus on the outdoor environment with both private and communal patios that become natural meeting places and promote neighborliness," says Rebecca Saaby Mehlum, responsible architect at FOJAB. She continues:
- The view, not least to the west in the evening light, and the greenery, which of course becomes more apparent in the spring, are some of the qualities that distinguish the site.
The real estate company Dilum, based in Klippan, has built and manages this property. CEO Christer Jonasson emphasizes the bright, modern style of the homes, which were all sold by design.
- We have had great support from the architects throughout the project and we are very pleased with the result," concludes Christer Jonasson.
